As an audiobook it was quite different to have music and a song in it, and an interview with the author, and then for the story to continue. I thought it worked remarkably well. A great way to learn about history in a fun way. ( ) Beautifully illustrated and beautiful story about a war I know very little about, this book is based on a moving true story I had never heard before. Really great supplemental material at the end of the book as well. If I had kids I'd buy this book. If I taught music, I'd buy this book and read it to my students every year, as the core message of the book is the power of art and beauty in the darkest of times. A young boy is selling flowers when a Sarajevo square is bombed. The next day, and for 22 consecutive days, cellist Vedran Smailovic plays music in the square to honor the 22 victims. Based on a true story of a 1992 bombing and the effects of Smailovic’s music on the people who gathered to listen. Includes Historical Note, Further Reading, Author’s Note, CD with extras, Music Sheet by Smailovic and McCutcheon. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
